Many of Sparton's clients do not fit into a specific market niche. Sparton has customers who manufacture items such as gaming systems, chemical and explosives detection equipment, manufacturing support equipment, and machine vision and motion stabilization camera systems.

The commonality among the companies that produce the aforementioned products is the expectation of process elevation. The demand for streamlined production eliminates the precondition for many specialized standards that are necessary for medical device manufacturing or aerospace production. Categorized as industrial customers, these customers count on Sparton's process control to keep their production lines running. The team within Sparton which focuses on industrial manufacturers customizes each client's process to meet their regulatory compliance needs. The team also maximizes Sparton's capabilities of flexible manufacturing, reducing the time to launch the product to market and maintaining adequate support inventory.

Relying on its extensive knowledge of working within various industries, Sparton recognized the needs of its industrial customers in achieving the pace necessary to keep up with market demands. Determining what needed to be implemented internally allowed Sparton to focus on moving product to the customer. The industrial group developed a customized material planning process that complemented Sparton's flexible and robust materials acquisition program. This provides consistent and predictable execution. The group worked extensively with lean manufacturing processes to shorten manufacturing lead-time, and structured the customer service teams to be completely integrated with each customer's product planning system.
